"This way to the campout!"
|
This year was the year: For the first time I joined the annual Swift Campout. Local shop Black Saddle Bikes had reserved sites at Brigham County Park. Me and the SO on our tandem, together with Grant and Jen, and Eric and Athena on their respective tandems joined the ride. Our tandem suffered some bad mechanical issues: Halfway on the way there, the chain got caught between the spokes and cassette, and then just a mile from our destination, the chain snapped and in the process badly bent the derailer. A chain tool, pliers, and very gentle riding fortunately got us back home. Aside from that it was a perfect camping trip, with great company, a beautiful camp site, and excellent weather! Enjoy the pics!
